Some for me
Talking about how you have a table at home and can beat all the friends, but are just not used to these "big" tables.
Not using the bridge because it's "sissy".
Keeping the chalk in the tray when taking the balls out. Tray goes on the counter top, chalk does not get even looked at.
Anyone that is happy and acts like it has to do with their skill when they win because you run 8 and hang up the 9.
Sending the cue-ball 4 rails and off most of the other balls then acting mad when they don't get position or a safe.
Lining up every ball-in hand straight in no matter what angle may be needed to get to the next ball.
Squinting for 5 minutes to figure out an angle to a pocket or if a ball goes by another when there are 3 other obvious ways to play into another pocket.

Only if you play bar pool....
From the WPA rules:
(f) If the breaker pockets the eight ball and scratches (see definition 8.6 Scratch), the opponent has the option of
(1) re-spotting the eight ball and shooting with cue ball in hand behind the head string; or
(2) re-breaking.

luckily i only have one banger trait and that is carrying a euro wrap chalk holder, but only because my pool hall doesnt have good chalk and i like a piece that doesnt have a cavern grinded into it.
i would like to see someone that did all of the above though, i would love to play them.

LOL Those are boys club rules. We used to play by that rule when i was like 10. Man those where the days.
Some funny stuff on this thread folks and haven't we all seen every character described on it! Loved readin' through it though!
The guy I wanna play is the one who has a "verifiable" 40 hr/week job and a drivers license with a local address not more than 100 miles from wherever I'm at. He can go ahead and bust me! LOL

I respectfully disagree and will play Efren
I would love to compete against Efren, in fact I would be willing to pay $500.00 for his traveling expenses and then play sets of Straight Pool for $1000.00. Bank Pool would also be negotiable, I can assure u rassorini I realize Efren is a very spiritual person and a true champion. He has his hands full and would have to pack a lunch in the 14.1 dept. I only wish people like you who make such broad statements had the $ and or the connections to get the game going. I guess this just shows that some people such as yourself rassorini think with their ego's, the harsh reality for you is if you bet on Efren playing me straight pool you might end up walking a little lighter. I am playing better now and have more knowledge about the game then when I ran 350 points against Shmidt in three innings. I also welcome anyone in the World to come to MO and play Straight pool. If they act like a gentleman and can win then they can win some serious cash. So bring the pastell alien or who ever cause everyone can win no matter nationality or color of their cue. I just need two weeks notice. OK rassorini.

Lets see there's setting the beer in the corner pocket to rack
ANY 5 PIECE CUE OWNER
Someone who makes the comment he's not that good he hasn't shot a hard shot all day
The guy that keeps checking the rack placing his hand over the head ball
as if that had something to do with the cue ball winding up in a low earth orbit
My personal favorite "oh you play staight pool I like 8 ball also 9 ball is all luck"

The first time i saw Tadd play, was at a Wendover open tournament... he walked in with just his stick (held together with a rubber band). My friends that have known him for years said he hadn't played a lick in years. He snapped off the single elim 9 ball tournament, and took 4th in the 8 ball.
